QUEENSLAND EARLY PIONEERS INDEX 1824-1859

Do you have Queensland ancestry?

This index was a Bicentennial Project of the Queensland Family History Society (1988), endorsed by the Queensland Committee of the Australian Bicentennial Authority. The index contains 156,760 references to approximately 50,000 names, taken from 75 sources located in Brisbane. It has been compiled from primary sources and contains references to those who were living in what is now Queensland (former Moreton Bay Region) prior to separation from New South Wales at the end of 1859. It's a terrific genealogy tool for anyone exploring their family history or building their family tree.
